Born in SF then moved to LA in 1960, my folks and uncles always brought back pies from a Chinatown restaurant that sold the best apple pies and a orange gelatin pie... My parents are now gone and I don't recall the name of the resto... Haven't seen those pies in over 10-15 yrs. Thought someone from this SF board or maybe Chandavkl might remember those pies and resto that sold them and if the place was still around.

Everyone knows Brian Boitano from winning the 1988 Olympics in men's figure skating, and some may even know him from his cooking show, What Would Brian Boitano Make? But very few people know how each of those things began. In this episode of My Food Thing, Brian revisits his childhood with a long-lost recipe for barbecue sauce and recalls the start of his successful skating career.
